Everything Is Going to Be Okay (Original Song)






I've got friends that treat me way up high
I've got friends that treat me low
I've got friends that stitch me to the sky
I've got friends that cut the bone

Won't you squeeze me all up and down
Won't you tease me all around town

Make a move and we can make out maybe
Hum a tune and we can sing it baby
Everything is going to be okay

Make a move and we can make out maybe
Hum a tune and we can sing it baby
Everything is going to be okay

Freedom of Expression

As an American, I have a unique and precious view of freedom and what it means to be free.

I can't take freedom for granted.

All the things that I think are broken or ruined about our country, all those things pale in comparison to the freedom that I have to express myself concerning those broken bits.

I have the freedom to live life the way I want to, on my own terms. And I am doing it now, I am expressing myself openly, I am finding a way to live into the life that I want for myself.

What am I going to do to exercise my freedom? What am I going to do to share the freedom that I have with others?

I am going to create. I am going to share. I am going to create and share and repeat again and again, because that is what I choose to do with my freedom.

What will you choose to do with your freedom? How will you express yourself?

I am here.

I am now.

I am free.

And so are you.

Express yourself.


Enjoy Yourself

On the journey from the past to the future we cross through the present.

In the present only is the way of life.

If we try to focus our energy anywhere but the present, we become lost, transfixed on something that does not exist. There is no past or future, there is only now.

And what we decide to do now is what is important. Who we decide to become is what we decide to do. And to do is what we are called to do.

Action and action alone can seal our fate.

Action and action alone is what takes us from the past through the present into the future.

There is no other time than now.

There is no other place than here.

Be where you are.

Be who you are.

Enjoy yourself, it's later than you think.


The Rhythm of Life

There is a rhythm to everything in life. It is a matter of getting on the right vibration, getting into the right rhythm in order to let yourself sing. Because there are different vibrations for every action and reaction in the planet, and there is always something new to get into and get involved with.


Sometimes the rhythms are interrupted. Sometimes something comes and interrupts you, but the rhythm is still intact, is still working and running a beat.


Don’t be afraid to run out the rhythm of life, there is no end in sight, there is no end to it whatsoever, there is always another rhythm to pick up. There is always another end to tend to, there is always another line to follow, another song to play, another wind to catch.


The rhythm is there, we just have to tune into it. We just have to tune into the rhythm of the universe. The universe has its own rhythm and we can find it any time, anywhere. Tune into the rhythm of your own heartbeat. Tune into the rhythm of your soul. The two rhythms may not be the same, they may be different, but they have to be harmonized to some extent. The two rhythms of your heart and your soul need to be intertwined until they are two beats of the same rhythm, two beats in one body.


Do not worry about the carving out of the art into something better, which is a task for later, concern yourself only with getting into the rhythm of writing right now, the rhythm of creation, and allow the creation to just happen, naturally, with a beat, with a rhythm.


Nothing short of brilliance is guaranteed when you look at your life’s rhythm and try to tune into it, and let the rhythm naturally expand and grow from nothing into something. There is something glorious about working the rhythm, playing the beat.


Get over the issues, get moving toward the end and the beginning, because that is where we work toward the goal of life. What is the goal of life you ask, what are the things that make us go, that make us tick, that make us move along the path toward success and experience? What makes the world tick by? What makes the time pass?


It is the rhythm.


The rhythm of life is something to tap into, to be a part of, to understand and count as part of your own life.


The rhythm of life is a magical experience for all those involved in getting anywhere at any time. There is rhythm and experience in all of the world.


We write when we write.


We sing when we sing.


We work when we work.


We live when we live.


We love when we love.


We do all those things when it is time for those things to be done. We live all the ways of our life when it is time for our life to be lived. We learn that there is something wonderful in almost every single little bit of the sustenance of life. There is something that is born when we breathe.

There are so many, many things to be concerned with in the world, and it makes no difference which one you choose to be involved with as long as you go and go and go. It is an interesting line of work to be involved in, this living and living and living.



What the rhythm can show us is that interruptions happen. Enjoy them and move on.
